Recruitment Cell BSNL CO issued directive to all Circle Heads regarding exemption from election related duty for exam date for upcoming LICEs on 16th & 17th April 2024.
Executives appearing in the LICEs are facing difficulties in attending the exams due to being deputed for election-related tasks. As a result, the Circle Heads have been asked to liaise with the relevant authorities to obtain exemptions for these individuals, ensuring they can appear in the LICE Exams.
With extreme grief, we bring to you the sad news of the demise of younger brother of Sh Mayur Parmar Circle President, Gujarat expired today, after a prolonged struggle to recover from an severe accident.
AIGETOA CHQ prays to the almighty to provide his family with sufficient strength and courage to tide over the crisis and for bearing this irreparable loss. We also pray so that the eternal soul rests in peace.
GS AIGETOA writes to BSNL Management conveying the Strong resentment amongst Executives against Special Privileges Granted to Management Trainees – breaking seniority hierarchy, posting MTs as OA head and direct reporting to BA Head – A Complete violation of BSNL hierarchy structure, extending additional privileges going beyond the existing rules while the same benevolence is invisible while dealing with the cadre issues of Executives belonging to Telecom, Finance and other streams.
On behalf of AIGETOA, we send heartfelt wishes for a vibrant and joyful Holi! 🎉
May this festival of colors paint your life with happiness, prosperity, and positivity. Let’s celebrate the hues of togetherness and joy!
Happy Holi !!

Thousands of employees have submitted their candidature for the said exam working across nook and corner of BSNL and many of employees are stationed at locations that are quite distant from the designated examination centres. This geographical dispersion poses significant logistical challenges when it comes to reach the examination centres.
Given the extended duration of the exams, which goes up till 8 pm, it is becoming increasingly challenging for employees to return on the same day after traveling long distances. Therefore, AIGETOA raise consideration in granting “on-duty” travel permissions to all eligible employees, enabling them to participate smoothly while ensuring minimal disruption to their routine work responsibilities.
Additionally, AIGETOA highlights the fact that the internal exams coincide with the forthcoming parliamentary elections, slated to begin from April 19th. The convergence of these two critical events might potentially lead to conflicts in terms of scheduling and prioritization. Keeping this in mind, GS AIGETOA requested Director HR to exempt all eligible executives involved in preparing for these internal exams from any election-related duties or works until the completion of the examinations on April 18th. By doing so, we believe that they can concentrate wholeheartedly on their preparation and performance during the assessment period.

BSNL CO has extended the deadline for eligible executive employees to submit self-certificates for Professional Upgradation Allowance (PUA) payments through the ERP-ESS portal. Originally set to close on 21st March 2024, the new deadline is now 31st March 2024 for the financial year ending 31st March 2024.
First implemented in 2005, PUA allows BSNL executives to receive two percent of one-month basic pay per month to purchase educational materials on a self-certification basis. Employees must submit their annual self-certification via the ERP-ESS portal between 21st March 2024 and 31st March 2024.
Failure to submit the mandatory certificate results in non-payment of PUA for the subsequent year.
BSNL CO has directed all CGMs across all circles to capture 100% of the desktop and laptop data in the company’s SAP-ERP system. This move aims to streamline operations and facilitate better management of resources. The letter has been issued in line with our discussions and assurances made in agenda meeting dated 9th February 2024 wherein for Pan India roll out of laptop policy, the asset entry is required.
BSNL has instructed that a certificate confirming the successful upload of all relevant data be submitted to the Corporate Office. Upon reviewing the certificates, the cases will be assessed on a circle-wise basis for the implementation of the Laptop Reimbursement Policy.
According to the guidelines provided by BSNL, the desktop and laptop data should be entered using Info Type 9002 in the respective Personal Areas (PA) or Personal Sub-Areas (PSA) within the ERP system. This initiative is expected to enhance transparency and efficiency in managing the company’s IT assets.
BSNL CO has urged all circles to expedite the process of data entry to ensure timely submission of certifications and smooth implementation of the Laptop Reimbursement Policy.
Accordingly, all the circle secretaries are requested to ensure that the compliance to this effect is done expeditiously so that executives can avail the facility of laptop reimbursement.
